Introduction

Major depression (MD) and anxiety symptoms (AS) are frequent cardiovascular diseases satellites (CVD).

Objectives

To examine features of comorbid physical and mental disorders considering age and sex variability.

Methods

Cross-sectional study 146 patients with СVD were examined in cardiologic department of the Medical Centre. Of these, 51 (60.0%) are women and 34 (40.0%) are men. Patients assessed the intensity of pain or its absence using Visual Analog Scale. Anhedonia was determined by the Snatch-Hamilton Pleasure Scale - SHAPS. A hospital scale, HADS, was used to assess anxiety and depression. The final clinical diagnosis of MD was carried out according to the DSM-V criteria. Quantitative and ordinal signs are presented in the form Me-Median (Q1; Q3) - the first and third quartiles, respectively.

Results

The degree of MD among male and female p=0,17; in “A” and “B” groups р=0,4912. Among patients of “A” age group is 2 (Q1 1 ; Q3 4) p=0,1777 had no difference. Patients of group “B” scored 3 (Q1 1,0; Q3 5,0) р=0,0019. Anxiety among female is 9 (Q1 6,0; Q3 11,0), among male 7 (Q1 3,5; Q3 9,0) р=0,0006. In the group of patients under 60 years anxiety score is 8 (Q1 4,0; Q3 9,0), group above 60 - 8 (Q1 6,0; Q3 11,0) р=0,0045. Pain intensity scored 3 (Q1 1,0; Q3 5,0) among male, 5 (Q1 3,0; Q3 7,0) among female p=0,0009.

Conclusions

Despite invariability of main depression symptoms among sex and partly age, pain and anxiety symptoms prevailed in elderly male and female.
